Package: libkf5wallet5 Version: 5.49.0-1 Severity: wishlist
Hi together,
I'm asking to add support for the Secret Service API [1] to KWallet as I would like write a Firefox extension to use KWallet and Gnome Keyring (which already provides this API) to manage its passwords. The reason is that the old FF extension [2] is not compatible with the Webextension based approach and can thus not be used with recent FF releases.
Interesting. I'm sure this would be a great addition to the kde and firefox environments, but I don't think that this should be attacked/solved from the Debian side. I think that this request should be made upstream, please send this request upstream using the kde bugzilla at https://bugs.kde.org, and if possible, after reporting the bug, please send the url of the upstream bug to this report.
- If I create a ksecrets deb package and provide a patch for the libkf5wallet5 package to use it, is there interest to include these changes into debian?
In general, we prefer patches that are accepted upstream, and in particular for handling user secrets I wouldn't want to diverge upstream at all. So, the short answer is not as long as the patches is not accepted upstream.
I would love to hear some feedback from anyone on my plans and if positive I would be happy to take care of the mentioned changes. If not I will take some other way to make the wallet available in my FF extension.
Oh, if you have a mock up of the changes you are intending to prepare you might want to create a WIP review request using https://phabricator.kde.org/, that usually gets more eyes that a bug report.
